Really didn't expect it, but they prepare it in-house daily so it is flavor-packed with fresh vegetables. The staff were super helpful and friendly, especially Min. I wanted to know their vegan options and she did not hesitate to recommend their specialty vegetable tempura roll, which was a great choice by the way! Their decor is cozy and cute, and the restaurant was busy when we showed up but didn't have to wait to get seated. The food all came out hot and ready for us to enjoy. Will be returning to this local spot!

Our quest for great Japanese food continues and our next stop was Shin Yuu Izakaya in Louisville…read more We are big fans of Izakaya style dining and this looked promising Stopped in early Friday evening to a restaurant that was relatively full for 5 pm. Seated immediately and the menu had many options on the sushi/sashimi/izakaya fare. On this evening I ordered a variety of nigiri pieces, the 5 piece sashimi board, and a chicken gizzard, chicken heart, and pork belly yakitori skewers. The sushi was very good and totally legit. The Sashimi board while good, the pieces were oddly cut. Not a complaint but it looked like the trimmings of the end pieces. The skewers were great, I'm not sure how many order the heart and gizzards but if you are a fan then this place nailed it. The pork belly skewer was probably my favorite. Since I was happy with the sushi, I placed a final order for their fresh uni nigiri, it was very fresh, creamy, and worth it! Overall great place, solid service, easy location, and lots of parking. We'll be back for sure!

We arrived at 6:30 pm on a Saturday evening to full restaurant which was a great sign. You also want to see your sushi bar moving a lot of product so you know their seafood will be fresh. Lucky for us there were two seats at the bar open so we were seated right away. We started off the meal with of course some Sapporo and premium sake along with a tempura app. I've not found great tempura in the area and was pleasantly surprised with their preparation. We then ordered a Chirashi bowl (wife) and assorted nigiri for myself. The chirashi was okay, decent but not anything amazing. Some of the fish cuts were a little odd like they were the trimmings from the end of the filet. My nigiri was solid and I appreciate the fish to rice ratio was perfect as lot of other places make their sushi with way too much rice to stretch the dish. The amaebi or sweet shrimp was fresh and heads were nicely fried and tasty though I wish they fried it a minute longer. Overall a solid sushi bar tucked away from the main road but definitely worth a visit!

Sadly, not the Sakana I remember…read more Sakana used to be such a wonderful restaurant. I've been coming here for 10 years and it was my go-to Japanese spot. Over the last year and a half, I've noticed the food quality really decline. I hadn't been back in almost a year, but my sons convinced me to give it another try tonight. Unfortunately, we were all disappointed. The karaage chicken was hard as a rock and overcooked. The katsudon was also way overcooked and lacked flavor. The only thing that was okay was the shrimp shumai. Service was rough too. Our table wasn't pre-bussed, and we felt pretty ignored. When the waitress did ask how it was and I told her she then just wanted to argue with me about the chicken being well done and not even edible and I even showed her I couldn't even eat it. Wasn't even chewable. It was so cooked. It's just so sad to see how far this place has fallen. I really hope they can turn it around because having a good Japanese restaurant nearby meant a lot to us.

We arrived shortly after they opened, so we had our pick of tables. Our waitress greeted us right away, took our drink order, and gave us a few minutes to look over the menu. We decided to start with the special as an appetizer, along with a Crunchy Spicy Tuna Roll (which was very tasty), miso soup, a house salad, and a variety of sushi rolls. The salad was large enough for us to easily share, and everything came out quickly. The presentation of the sushi was fairly typical of what we've experienced at other sushi restaurants, but the portions were generous and, most importantly, the quality was very good. We also noticed that the restaurant uses really nice ceramic dishware throughout, although the soup bowl was the one exception and appeared to be plastic or melamine. One of the things we especially appreciated was the service. Yonsei has that genuine mom-and-pop restaurant feel, which is something we really enjoy and prefer to support. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and everything about the experience felt comfortable and welcoming. Overall, we were very happy we gave Yonsei a try. Good service, generous portions, quality sushi, and that local neighborhood feel make it a place we would definitely return to when we're in the area! One small suggestion would be to provide a better quality soy sauce. The soy sauce used at the table was a little too salty for our taste and not as "velvety" as others I have tried in the past.
